Shout for joy and get out the cider!
Western author Mr. Peter Brandvold will gallop into the Junction with guns blazing on Saturday, May 19th.
Mr. Peter has been here before and always shows us a good time. He's raring to talk to us about what makes interesting reading.
And we won't have to twist his arm and make him holler uncle to tell us about his books.
So, join our party. We'll make sure Mr. Peter puts away his guns. Can't have him filling us with holes.
But seriously, no finer gentleman walked the earth than Mr. Peter. I'd bet the ranch on that. Shoot, I'd even bet my mule Jasper and I'm right fond of him.
For a good time and a chance to ride the trail with a bona-fide gunslinger follow the trail to the Junction.
That's Saturday, May 19th. Don't forget now!Published at May 10th, 2012 in category Announcements
Hello Darlings,
The Fillies have rustled up another guest to ride the range with and will put another potato in the pot.
Miss Lacy Williams will call on us Saturday, May 12th.
She'll talk about mothers and how special they are. Plus, she'll tell us about a new book called THE HOMESTEADER'S SWEETHEART that has hit the bookstores. It's a Harlequin Love Inspired romance and looks like a humdinger or my name's not Felicia Filly.
Miss Lacy isn't coming empty-handed either. She's toting a copy to give away.
Show up and comment to get your name in the hat for the drawing. Easy as pie.
So shake the wrinkles out of your bustle and head over.
Saturday's the day and the Junction is the place.Published at May 7th, 2012 in category Announcements

Well, the Fillies have done it again. They've gotten involved with a very worthy cause and could use your help.
I reckon you've heard of Brenda Novak, the romance author. If not, tie up your horse and sit right down. She hosts a yearly auction and gives the proceeds to the Diabetes Foundation so they can find a cure for this horrible disease.
The Fillies have put together a basket of their books and other neat things and Miss Brenda is auctioning it off along with a whole passel of others. Click Here to mosey over and check it out.
And if the spirit moves you to place a bid the Fillies sure would be mighty grateful.
The auction will last through the end of May.Published at May 3rd, 2012 in category Announcements
Hello Darlings,
Miss Renee Ryan has saddled up and will ride into Wildflower Junction on Saturday, May 5th.
The Fillies are tickled pink to have her back. Miss Rene is going to pick our brains on what we think of book covers so be mulling that over. She'll give you plenty of opportunity to throw in your two cents.
Plus, the dear lady is giving away a passel of books. Yep, that's right. She's toting three copies of MISTAKEN BRIDE in addition to having a grand prize winner who'll get the whole set of the Irish Brides series.
So don't lollygag around. Come Saturday hitch up your wagon and follow the trail to the Junction.
We'll be waitin' for you!Published at April 26th, 2012 in category Announcements
Hello Darlin's,
The Fillies will welcome Miss Kat Martin back on Saturday, April 28th.
Miss Kat always knows how to show her readers a good time. She's a dear talented lady full of interesting information. This time she's here to tell us about the re-release of an earlier suspense. Midnight Sun is the title. If you missed it when it came out before you'll have another chance to read it.
My mama used to say that old books never die, they're just recycled. And Lord if that ain't the truth.
So hightail it over to the Junction on Saturday. You won't regret it.
You may even have a chance to win an paperback copy.Published at April 20th, 2012 in category Announcements
Mr. Robert Randisi will be our guest on Sunday, April 22.
This multi-talented man writes western fiction as well as detective books. And he seems to be making a good living doing it.
He'll tell us how he got started writing and the things he's learned along the way. If you have a hankering to find out just what makes him tick, you'll get your chance to ask all the questions you have a mind to.
So strap on your spurs and ride along with him.
I'm sure he'll be right glad for the company.Published at April 19th, 2012 in category Announcements
Hello darlings,
Miss Janet Dean has boarded the stage and will arrive on Saturday, April 21.
The dear lady has weddings on her mind. She'll tell us about her own ceremony and also a little about her new anthology with Victoria Bylin and Pamela Nissen called BRIDES OF THE WEST. The title of Miss Janet's story is "Last Minute Bride." It sounds right up my alley. I declare, one of these days I'm gonna rope me a cowboy!
Miss Janet isn't coming empty-handed either. She's toting some books to give away. You'll want to get your name in the hat for those.
So don't be shy or lollygag around.

Hello Darlings,
Miss Debra Mullins is up next and she'll arrive on Saturday, April 14th.
I think this will make Miss Debra's second time here so the Fillies need your help in showing her some more good ol' fashioned down home hospitality.
Not sure yet what Miss Debra will find to chat about but you can bet it'll be fun.
She's celebrating a re-release of an older book called THE LAWMAN'S SURRENDER. In honor of the occasion, she's giving away a copy in e-format.
So, get up when the rooster crows and don't lollygag around.
Remember....we're countin' on you.
